Purpose: The study was conducted to explore the experiences of job retention among working people with mental illness. Methods: The participants were members with mental illness at the S Community Mental Health Center in Gyeonggi Province and who had been working for more than six months. The data were collected through in-depth interviews with 11 participants between June 27 and August 20, 2018. The data were analyzed through Corbin and Strauss's grounded theory method. Results: The core category was struggling to take root in the community as a productive member. The core phenomenon was the desire to be a productive person, and the causal condition was the willingness to change for a purposeful life. The action and interaction strategies included maintaining regular living patterns, maintaining medication, developing one's tips for self-management, and self-approval. The intervening conditions were difficulties in forming social relationships, presence of symptoms, social resources, and acceptance of one's mental illness. The consequences were restoration of family relationships, healthy pleasure through work, social inclusion, development of self-worth, and transition to an independent person. Conclusion: Working people with mental illness are struggling to take root in the community as a productive member. This study suggests that a holistic understanding of the job retention experience among people with mental illness is required. The findings will provide the basis for developing interventions that can improve job retention among working people with mental illness.

회복지향질병관리(Illness Management and Recovery: IMR) 프로그램은 정신과 환자의 질병에 대한 자가 관리 및 회복을 촉진하기 위해 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 한국판 IMR 프로그램이 입원한 만성 중증정신과 환자의 회복, 정신질환 지식, 희망에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 연구 대상자는 조현병, 양극성장애, 조현형정동장애로 진단 받은 사람들로 실험군(51명)은 IMR 프로그램에 참여하였으며, 대조군(41명)은 기존의 치료를 유지하였다. 자료 수집은 2015년 5월부터 2016년 12월까지 이루어졌다. 정신건강회복척도, 정신장애 지식척도, 한국판 희망척도를 사전과 중재 이후에 실시하였다. 연구결과 IMR 프로그램에 참여한 사람들이 기존 치료를 유지한 대조군에 비해 자신의 회복 추구와 정신장애에 대한 지식이 향상하였다. 그러나 두 그룹 모두 희망에 대한 변화는 유의하지 않았다. 본 연구는 한국에서 처음 시행된 IMR 프로그램의 효과성 연구이다. 본 연구 결과는 한국판 IMR 프로그램이 우리나라 정신보건 임상에서 만성 정신과 환자의 회복을 촉진시키는 효과적인 중재로 활용될 가능성을 지지한다.

본 연구는 일반인들이 정신질환을 가진 사람들에 대한 인식을 개선시키기 위한 일환으로 공공 노력의 필요성을 제기하고 방안을 제시하기 위함이다. 그리고 정신질환태도에 관한 인구통계학적인 차이, 인식개선을 위한 공익광고 필요성과 매체별로 현재수준과 기대수준을 비교 분석한 후 이를 개선하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 치료를 통해 완전히 회복될 수 있는 우울증, 강박증, 공황장애를 중심을 살펴보았고 서울과 수도권에 거주하는 일반인들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과 응답자들의 정신질환자에 대한 태도에 대한 인식차이에서는 성별, 결혼상태, 연령대, 가족 중 정신질환 치료 경험 유무에 따라 정신질환자에 대한 태도에서 인식차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 반면 종교, 월수입, 학력에 따른 인식차이는 유의하지 않음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 대부분의 응답자는 인식개선을 위해 공공의 노력 즉, 대중매체를 통한 노력이 필요하다고 인식하는 것을 확인하였고 TV광고, 인터넷, 라디오, 광고탑, 운송수단의 활용을 통한 광고가 강화되어야한다고 생각하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과를 통해 본 연구에서는 정신질환자의 인식 개선을 위해 대중매체를 통한 광고의 필요성을 제시하였고 이를 강화하기 위한 방안으로 사회적 차원, 조직적 차원, 개인적 차원을 중심으로 제안하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate a self-management program for community dwelling patients with chronic mental illness so that they could improve their daily living skills and interpersonal relationships. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-post test design was used. The participants with chronic mental illness were recruited from a community mental health center. Twenty-two participants were assigned to the intervention group and 19 to the control group. The self-management was provided by 8 trained nursing students, and consisted of 8 sessions including education and practice. Each session was composed of strategies to improve self-care of community dwelling patients with chronic mental illness. Baseline and post-intervention measurements were done using a daily living skill performance scale and interpersonal relationship instrument. Results: Scores for daily living skill performance were not statistically significant, but scores for interpersonal relationship were statistically significant. Conclusion: The results of this study show that the self-management program had a positive impact on patients with chronic mental disorders. Therefore, it is suggested that the program could be used as an effective nursing intervention for patients with chronic mental disorders being cared for in community mental health centers.

Objectives: The purpose of this paper is to describe the role for public education in mental health promotion, prevention of mental illness and treatment of mental disorders in Canada. Results: A brief history of the changing nature of the way we treat mental disorders in Canada argues for an increasingly critical role for public education. Furthermore, the new understanding of the role of social determinants in prevention of mental illness again necessitates a vital role for public education as the shift in focus moves from exclusively individual-focused health care treatments to creating supportive environments. The roles for mental health public education then become: advocacy for the social determinants of health approach, better understanding of the nature of mental health problems, useful information for self-management, and more knowledge about appropriate treatments. A brief discussion of the structure of the response in Canada provides an overview of national and provincial responsibilities in mental health care with a case study highlighting one community's response to addressing mental disorders. Conclusion : Finally, challenges regarding the most effective educators and the issue of professional expertise embedded in the status quo are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing social adaptation of chronic mental illness. The subjects of this study were 190 patients, over the age of 20 with chronic mental illness diagnosed by a physician, and living in Seoul, Korea during May, 2000 to December 2000. The instruments for this study were the social adaptation scale by Wallace (1979), the self-esteem scale by Rogenberg (1965), social support scale by ParkJiWon (1985), coping behavior scale by Shirley Zeitlin (1978), self efficacy scale by Sherer et. al (1982), and Rand mental health inventory(1979). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. The results of this study are as follows: 1. The level of social adaptation showed moderate (M=3.43). 2. The social adaptation showed significant positive correlation with self-esteem (r=0.39, p=0.00), self-efficacy (r=0.31, p=0.00), social support (r=0.47, p=0.00), self-productive coping (r=0.14, p=0.05), self-flexible coping (r=0.22, p=0.00), environment-active coping (r=0.21, p=0.00), and environment-flexible coping (r=0.14, p=0.04). The social adaptation showed significant negative correlation with anxiety (r=-0.16, p=0.02), and emotional problems (r=-0.18, p=-0.00). 3. The stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the most powerful predictor of social adaptation was social support (21%). A combination of social support, depression, behavioral controllability, self-efficacy, and environmental coping behavior accounted for 39% of the variance in social adaptation in chronic mental illness. From the results of this study, it is suggested to develop and apply a social adaptation training program for chronic mental illness.
